It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Aamir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: There is no deed done throughout the day except that a seal is set upon it.

Allah Almighty says: "Keep sealing for him the deeds he used to do when he was healthy, until he recovers or passes away."

It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Acquire the knowledge of the Book of Allah, hold firmly to it, and recite it with melody.

It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Aamir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I fear for my Ummah regarding the Book and milk. Someone asked, O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him) What is meant by the danger from the Book? He replied: The hypocrites will learn it and will argue with the believers. Then someone asked, What is meant by the danger from milk? He replied: Some people will be fond of milk, and because of it, they will leave the congregation and will neglect the Friday prayers.

It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Aamir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The expiation for a vow is the same as the expiation for an oath.

It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do not put yourself in danger after being in peace.

Khalid bin Zaid says that Hazrat Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) used to come to me and say, "Come with us, let us practice archery." One day I was feeling heavy (unwell), so he said, "I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say that Allah Almighty will admit three people into Paradise because of a single arrow: one who made it with a good intention, the second who assisted in it, and the third who shot it. Therefore, practice archery and horseback riding, and to me, archery is more preferable than horseback riding. And everything that makes a person heedless is falsehood, except for a man's bow and arrows, his care for his horse, and his playful interaction with his wife, for these things are true. And whoever learns the art of archery and then forgets it, he has shown ingratitude to the one who taught him."

It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: Recite the Mu'awwidhatayn (the last two surahs of the Qur'an), for you will not recite any surah like them.

It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Soon after me, some rulers will come over you. If they perform the prayers on time and complete the bowing and prostration, then it will be a source of reward for you and for them. But if they do not perform the prayers on time and do not complete the bowing and prostration, then you will still receive the reward, and it will be a burden upon them.

It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Aamir (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: The expiation for a vow is the same as the expiation for an oath.
